As somebody who was "dying sick" for almost two years, I still would say I hate car trouble more than anything else. I am pretty sure I have "car hypochondria". Today I had to take off from work to go get my windshield wiper fixed (it being the snowy season and all that). I had to drive to the dealer becuase it was under warranty. They fixed it in (almost literally) seconds. I wish I had even a rudimentary knowledge about car repair. I don't know where my car breakdown paranoia comes from, but man does it get to me. I could be driving past a forest fire and smell the burning trees and be all worried my engine is on fire. I wonder what the clinical term is for someone who is constantly afeared his car is about to breakdown.

I didn't get any tofu today. I walked thru the Pathmark by me for quite some time and was never able to locate it (I refuse, on principle, to ask one of the people working there where the tofu is). Instead, I purchased an eggplant. I cut it into slices, coated them lightly with olive oil and grilled them via George Foreman. I put the grilled slices on whole wheat bread that I had spread hummus on. It was not a bad sandwich at all.

I watched thaat Clive Owen movie Shoot 'Em Up. It was cartoonish, but entertaining for what it was. You could do a lot worse if you enjoy lots of gunplay.
